My dear Sister:

141 My dear Sister:

We are deeply shocked and pained to hear of the death of Grace. We had heard some time ago that she was ailing but presumed she had recovered.

I am afraid it will not be possible for any of us to attend her funeral, as we are having so much trouble in the Coke region.

Your loss is a great one, but it is what we all have to ?? to. Ada ?? ?? tender sympathy and much love

Affectionately yours

Clay
